1H, 1 3C,and 1 5N Chemical shifts and 1H-1 5N and 1 3C-1 5N heteronuclear spin-spin coupling constants in the NMR spectra of 5-substituted furfural oximes

The ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹⁵N NMR spectra of ¹⁵N-enriched 5-substituted furfural oximes were investigated. It was shown that the chemical shifts of the ring atoms and the oxime group correlate satisfactorily with the F and R substituent constants, whereas their sensitivity to the effect of the substituents is lower than in monosubstituted furan derivatives. The constants of spin-spin coupling between the ring protons and the oxime group were determined. An analysis of the ¹H-¹H spin-spin coupling constants (SSCC) on the basis of their stereospecificity indicates that the E isomers have primarily an s-trans conformation in polar dimethyl sulfoxide, whereas the Z isomers, on the other hand, have an s-cis conformation. The signs of the direct and geminal ¹³C-¹⁵N SSCC were determined for 5-trimethylsilylfurfural oxime.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1172–1177, September, 1985.The authors thank N.

Synthesis of 5-Deoxy-5-Acyloxyiminoavermectin B1 Derivatives

The avermectins1 are a unique collection of naturally occurring macrocyclic lactones with broad spectrum of anthelmintic and insecticidal activities. Their remarkable biological activity and complex molecular architecture stimulated significant interest in the scientific community. Much research has been carried out on these compounds. Many derivatives of avermectin have much more bioactivities and have been commercially utilized2-5. Here we describe the synthesis of 5-deoxy-5-acyloxyimi…     

Improved Preparation of 5-Chloro-1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole and Other 5-Chlorotetrazoles.

Reaction of aryldichloroisocyanides 1a–e with sodium azide and a phase transfer agent has provided 5-chloro-1-aryl-1H-tetrazoles 2a–e in good yield. In particular, the widely-used intermediate, 5-chloro-1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole 2a, can be produced conveniently and safely in yields approaching 100%.     

1-Aryl-5-carboxymethylhydantoin derivatives. structure of 1-phenyl-2-thio-5-carbomethoxymethylhydantoin

The reaction of aromatic amines with maleic acid or its diethyl ester with subsequent hydrolysis gave N-arylaspartic acids, which were converted to 1-aryl- and 1-aryl-2-thio-5-carboxymethylhydantoins by the action of urea, cyanates, or thiocyanates in an acidic medium. Esterification of the acid products with methanol gave the corresponding carbomethoxymethylhydantoins, which were converted by reduction to tetrahydroimidazole derivatives and by acetylation to acetyl derivatives. Alkylation of the carboxymethylhydantoins with dimethyl sulfate gave 3-methyl derivatives of hydantoins, while alkylation with formaldehyde gave 3-hydroxymethyl derivatives of hydantoins. Data from the x-ray diffraction analysis of 1-phenyl-2-thio-5-carbomethoxymethylhydantoin are presented.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1669–1674, December, 1981.     

Vibrational assignments and theoretical calculations of 1-phenyl-5-mercaptotetrazole and 1-phenyl-5-mercaptotetrazolate

The infrared and Raman spectra of 1-phenyl-5-mercaptotetrazole (PMT) and 1-phenyl-5-mercaptotetrazole sodium salt in the solid state and in solution have been measured. Detailed vibrational assignments of PMT and 1-phenyl-5-mercaptotetrazolate (PMTA) have been performed. In order to give a firmer basis to the interpretation of the vibrational spectra, harmonic wavenumbers of PMT and PMTA have been calculated by means of MP2 and DFT/BPW91 calculations. The DFT calculations provide a satisfactory agreement between the calculated and observed wavenumbers without using scaling factors. Experimental evidence shows that PMT is present in the thione tautomer both in the solid state and in solution of polar solvents.

The spin-allowed and spin-forbidden 5s 2 1 S 0-5s5p 1 P 1,3 P 1 transitions in strontium isoelectronic sequence

Relativistic multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) transition energies and oscillator strengths are determined for both the spin-allowed 5s ^{2 1} S ₀-5s5p ¹ P ₁ and the spin-forbidden 5s ^{2 1} S ₀-5s5p ³ P ₁ transitions in the strontium isoelectronic sequence. The modest relativistic configuration mixing to represent intravalence correlation is combined with a polarization model to account for valence-core electron correlations. The multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock calculations are performed in an average level scheme; however for neutral strontium and singly ionized yttrium a thorough comparison of the average and the optimal level schemes is presented. The average level scheme, though less accurate for the neutral end of the sequence, avoids the convergence problems encountered for highly ionized systems, where the 5s 5p ³ P ₁,¹ P ₁ states are raised owing to the collapse of the 4d _{3/2, 5/2} spin-orbitals in the isoelectronic sequence and, thus, allows us to extend our study to multiple charged ions (throughW ³⁶⁺). Since for such systems there is practically no difference between the results of the average and the optimal level versions of MCDF calculations, we believe that our average level predictions of ionization energies and oscillator strengths for states with total angular numberJ=0 andJ=1 are of comparable quality to those that could be obtained with an optimal level scheme.This study was supported by the Pedagogical Academy of Kraków Statutory Activity Grant No BS-29/91
